Achieving a look like Lady Gaga's [1] most recent red carpet glam is surprisingly easy — though it comes at a pretty hefty price. The A Star is Born [2] actress' makeup artist Sarah Tanno spoke with Today [3] about exactly what goes into achieving Lady Gaga [4]'s incredible skin.
The secret? A slew of skincare products you can find at places like Amazon and Sephora, mixed in with a few pricier luxury items here and there, totaling a whopping $272.

Embryolisse Lait Creme Concentre [6] ($16) is a lightweight, paraben-free moisturiser that is "perfect for makeup prep and even works on the most sensitive skin," Tanno said.

Tanno applies Sisley Paris's Comfort Extreme Lip Balm [7] ($74) on Gaga's lips just before slicking on lipstick.

"This mascara does it all for me, and you can apply as many coats as you need for the desired look," Tanno said of Marc Jacobs Beauty's Velvet Noir Major Volume Mascara [9] ($26). Gaga apparently loves this mascara because of the drama it adds to her looks on top of its reliability.
